This Year's Model Updates:

The 2005 Chrysler 300 is an all-new, rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan; it replaces the Concorde and 300M. In a clear move away from the cab-forward design theme Chrysler championed in the 1990s, the 300 represents the company's bold new direction and makes use of plenty of Mercedes-Benz technology. Available features include Chrysler's Hemi V8, stability control, side curtain airbags and, later in the year, all-wheel drive.

Pros:
  • Chiseled and masculine good looks, powerful V8 in 300C model, long list of safety features, plenty of luxury and performance for the price paid.
Cons:
  • Sluggish acceleration with base V6, limited transmission choices, complex stereo controls.

  • First Year Woes - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    My 05 300 Sig Series is a good value overall. It has enough power to put a smile on my face and it is confident in the turns. I have had to make several trips to my local dealer for repair work. A part of the interior of the sunroof broke and I have had a strange idle/near stall problem. The idle problem took 3 trips to resolve. Eventually a electronic module was replace on the 2nd trip and the computer was reprogrammed (dealer forgot to do so) on the 3rd trip. I just noticed that, like others, my rear driver side window only works when it feels like it. Since this is the first year of this car, I can overlook a few bugs (similar problems w/ previous Caddy and Aurora)

    This car is the best care any one can wish for hope for and have. We purchased this car 3weeks ago, we have 2 other vehicles and we havent been in them since. The car is very roomy and the style of the car is awsome, we get so many complaments on the car we get looks questions all the above, my fiance was going to buy a BMW before I saw this car and told him he better not, I took him to the dealer and that was all she wrote. This car is the bomb I love it, I love it, I love.

  • LOVE THIS CAR!!!!!! - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    I LOVE THIS VEHICLE - THE LOOK - THE RIDE - EXCEPTIONAL. I HAVE A FULLY LOADED 300C. I HAVE SO MUCH FUN WATCHING BEMI - BENZ ETC. PRETENDING THEY ARENT LOOKING. IF WERE LINED UP IN THE PARKING LOT, MY CAR DRAWS THE CROWD. MORE IMPORTANTLY - IT REALLY IS A TERRIFIC CAR. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE PAYING ME THE WAY I PROMOTE THIS CAR BUT I DO IT OUT OF SHEER LOVE FOR THE VEHICLE. I THINK MY GIRLFRIEND IS A LITTLE JEALOUS! I TEST DROVE EVERYTHING BEFORE I BOUGHT & FOR THE PRICE MY 300C WAS HANDS DOWN THE WINNER. SORRY I GOT CARRIED AWAY - THE NEXT REVIEW MIGHT BE MORE HELPFUL. CB III

    It will pass anything on the road but a gas station, but it is fun to drive.

  • My Chrysler 300-C - 2005 Chrysler 300

    Has the feel of the sixties car with a very agressive style unlike any other car now being produced.

  • High Amount of "Street Credit" - 2005 Chrysler 300

    I test drove a lot of cars in my price range before choosing the 300. The handling and performance was amoung the very best. When you add in the Bentley like looks and all the goodies that come with the signature series why settle for some car that makes it look like your alway driving a rental?

    Hi folks,I have a 2005 chrysler 300 base and Im suprised hearing some of the bad reviews about the base model.I read where people said it dont have power and thats not true it has more than a person needs plus great on gas. Only the people who are speed crazy would think that.Also some say its interior is cheap which is not true people who see it loves it.I see many 300s for sale with torn leather.Also people knock the steel wheels with hubcaps on them.Nothing wrong with that at least a person can change the hubcaps at a fair price whenever they want to while other owners are stuck with high priced wheels.I have friends who have the touring model and mine is more eye cathing.
